The best bars and cafés Denmark

In a mid-flea ambiance of tea and coffee making, you can relax and choose between a pastry, soup, sandwich or a delicious.

It's a coffee, a nightclub, a bar and a restaurant all at once! You can eat it all day. Concerts for all tastes Thursday or Friday: rock, jive of the 40 s, rockabilly, pop…

A little way from the village, on the path leading up to the cliffs, this pretty café has taken its place in an old house south of Sandavágur. The atmosphere is there: creaking floorboards, the smell of tar or fish, dimmed lights... Indeed, fresh fish is the main ingredient of the daily menu. A narrow alley separates the café from the century-old Úti á Gjógv warehouse, renovated and transformed into a venue for conferences, meetings, parties... As you leave the café, you'll see an area of sloping stone paving, corresponding to the old salt cod drying grounds!

The kind of address we love in Copenhagen. Sober and designer as well as friendly. An intimate dining room. A pleasant terrace. A few wooden tables, pretty hanging lamps and excellent coffee! Coffee Collective is certainly one of the best in town. Expresso, long, strong, café crème... There's something for every taste... and you'll love it... and keep coming back! The creaminess of the milk foam is a feast for the eyes, in the great tradition of baristas! The coffees come from Brazil, Colombia, Kenya and Guatemala.

At Joe's, fruit is king! Both fresh and dry, they are prepared differently each time, depending on the month of the year. Is it useful to specify that they are organic? For dessert: Goji brownie or Carrot cake, as fresh fruit juice: Sex me up or Joe's identity or as a shake: avocado or chocolate... In addition, they are good for your health. For each consumption, the caloric index is specified! You'll recognize his black and pink logo: Joe wears a cap and sits at the table. For a quick lunch: there are also sandwiches and bowls

Nice café managed by a voluntary association which proposes concerts and doubles at the weekend as a discotheque. But you can come and have a snack all day long. The raven is the sign of the place. A bird full of symbols. Here the approach is assumed: several ingredients are organic and local. The wine list offers biodynamic red wine and white wine. And zero food waste. The volunteers buy the daily dishes at reduced prices. Food and frying oil are recycled by DAKA Refood into biogas and biodiesel!

A café-cinema where you can spend an excellent evening. On Thursdays, a special screening for young parents: sessions with babies. Everyone is warned, baby can start crying! On Wednesdays, the first screening of the morning awaits you with a coffee offered in all conviviality. This is a place that young people in Odense frequent. You order at the counter. On the square, which is very lively in summer, there are jazz and rock concerts in the afternoon and evening. Terrace in the summer, with a veranda and old Danish film posters for decoration.

City club, a name that doesn't make you dream! And yet... Come here if you like the atmosphere of the 1980's or American bars plunged into darkness. The evenings come alive around the pool tables with the local rockers. On one side, a large room with six billiards tables and on the other, another room where screens broadcast the sport and the matches of the moment. The place is very large and the atmosphere is warm. The menu of cocktails, shooters, beers and other spirits is accompanied by nibbles. Attention: remember to make a reservation!

Everything in Ribe is charming. And the Strygejernet café in particular. A pub in a building on the corner of two streets in the old town, close to the cathedral. Its tall, narrow, ragged façade proudly displays its age: 1876. The atmosphere is quiet and friendly, you can watch the football matches on TV with the young people of Ribe while drinking a good beer. On sunny days, you can play table football on the square in front of the entrance. On the ceiling, thousands of vinyl records testify to memorable evenings. It would be a shame to miss out!

A cosy café to match. Brick walls left untouched, comfortable deep-blue banquettes, a play of mirrors and a superb central counter around which customers sip a glass or a coffee while waiting to sit down to lunch of smørrebrød, beef tartare or truffle pasta. Our smart tip: try their super-healthy brunch or enjoy an aperitif on the lovely terrace. Convivial and friendly, the "Chien Bleu" is (also) a meeting place for board game enthusiasts.

Promenaden has retained the charm of the 1930s. Parquet floors on the floor, wood panelling on the walls and paintings of nudes in the Modigliani style or cabaret scenes in the Toulouse-Lautrec style. The French touch ! A few tables outside along the tree-lined, paved promenade, a billiard table inside, and a suburban atmosphere: small glasses of red wine from the house's own cuvée, sitting at the counter reading the newspaper or chatting with the owner, amidst a somewhat chic clientele. We stop there for a hearty breakfast or a gourmet snack.

At the service in this establishment, an association of irreducible volunteers implanted in the heart of Christiana. "Le Pêcheur de lune" (in French) has taken up residence in an old brick building, a heating centre that once supplied the boatmen's barracks dominated by its high chimney. Young clientele in this beautiful, rather rough place, made of cement, glass and steel. There is a coffee shop (no alcohol is served) which hosts concerts on Thursdays and Fridays. Brunch to be tasted absolutely, copious and of super quality.

Ideally located on the edge of the Christianshavn canal, Oven Vande offers a superb view of the boats in transit. A terrace, the envy of many, lets you enjoy the last rays of sunshine or the pretty garlands of lights after dark. A friendly place, part café, part restaurant, worth a visit both for its location and its cuisine (including a rather hearty brunch). Inside, the decor reflects a passion for French cinema: vintage posters featuring Raimu interpreting Pagnol classics!

This large bar, popular with Danish youth, is often packed. The service is friendly and welcoming. The decor mixes an Art Deco frieze, old photos, floor lamps and large designer pipes. Apparently housed in a former pharmacy, Café Bang & Jensen offers a few simple dishes for lunch and dinner. You can play foosball or listen to rock, pop or folk music while drinking a café latte during the day and beers or wine in the evening, in a noisy, friendly atmosphere.

Welcome to the "French Café". Named as such in the 1970s, this neighbourhood café has no direct links with France! The owners are Danish and offer a 100% Danish menu with Carlsberg, frikadelles, mixed salads and nourishing dishes. A nice place to sit by the water and enjoy the beautiful view of Lake Sortedams Sø, in the shade of a tree-lined driveway. If you are just having a drink, don't forget to help yourself at the bar. Still typically Danish!
